Sinai Road(SR 1718) and west of Friends School Road(SR 1719). The <br /> property contains 33.94 acres and is zoned PD-RB, Planned Development- Rural <br /> Buffer. <br /> In August of 1990 a Class A Special Use Permit was issued for Carolina Friends <br /> School to allow the use of the school's wastewater disposal system in the Rural <br /> Buffer. Article 6.20.1 of the Zoning Ordinance states that a large ground <br /> absorption system with a design capacity over 3000 gallons per day may be <br /> allowed in the RB district only through approval of a planned development. A <br /> planned development is also required where there are multiple principal structures <br /> on a non-residential lot greater than two acres in size. <br />
